Trumpet Lessons Shelby County, AL

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Trumpet, French Horn

I have been involved in music lessons ever since second grade. I began with piano lessons, and then over the years have taken voice, trumpet, guitar, and french horn. I would also attend master classes for the vocal department at UNA. One thing I have learned in all of this is the statement that practice makes perfect is very true! I have also learned that it is important to take things in chunks as you practice. Read More

Instruments: Voice, Trumpet, Drums, Music, Keyboard

My approach to teaching is something that I take very serious. I believe in being the best not being number #1. I love music and want to work with musicians who want to get better and take their music endeavors to the next level. One of my teachers at Jackson State University told us that as a musician you are supposed to get better as the years go by and as you get older you become even stronger if it’s vocals or instrumentals.

Instruments: Voice, Cello, Trumpet, Flute, Clarinet, Euphonium, Tuba, Music

I have been involved in music my entire life, starting in a percussion group and choir in elementary school. I started on the clarinet at the beginning of middle school. I taught myself how to play the clarinet amongst the other instruments I play with the help and guidance of college professors, band directors, and tricks I noticed along the way. I have been selected and performed in multiple honor bands across my time in middle and high school, including Troy University's honor band and All State. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Trumpet, Drums, Bass Guitar, Keyboard, Electric Guitar, Classical Guitar, Acoustic Guitar

I am 24 years old, and best known as the lead guitar player for rock band Throne Of Eden. While rock and roll is where my heart is, I am a very well-rounded musician. In 2017 I graduated from Mississippi State University with a Bachelors Degree in Classical Guitar Performance, and a secondary focus in voice. Unlike most guitarist, you could catch me playing styles varying from Mozart to Guns N Roses at the drop of a hat. Read More

Instruments: Trumpet, Trombone, Euphonium

For complete beginners I use the usual method books used in the public schools.  As I get to know the student I tailor the lessons to their skill level and personality to teach the fundamentals.  More intermediate students I look at what they do well and areas they need to work on such as embouchure or breathing technique.  I teach theary and make sure the student learns how to read music.  More advanced students I will teach repertoire and advanced books such as Arban's Mehod book.  I will always make sure the fundamentals are taught regardless of the skill level.
